A Great Night at the Joffrey Ballet Gala

Friday evening was the annual Joffrey gala. For me, the best of the Joffrey happens on this one day, once a year. It is a very exciting day, to celebrate the culmination of yet another great season. This year the dinner was at Union Station, and believe me when I tell you it was beautiful.

As a dancer, we love what we do, but all of us, dancers, board members, staff, and directors alike, all work hard and fight for the support of the arts. It is another victory for us to be able to close another year in this condition. I want to thank you all for your support, in whatever form it may come. I thank you for coming to shows, for reading my blog and following my thoughts, for donating, for doing whatever it is you can do to support us. And so, I ask you to support us once more, and come to see our spring program, Eclectica, as we close out our 2009-2010 season. And it is only the start for a great new beginning...
